The deadline for early entry candidates to declare for the NBA Draft is Sunday, but UCLA’s Darren Collison is still undecided, according to his mother.
“Down to the wire, got no news,” June Collison said Thursday evening. “We’ve told him it’s completely his decision. If you want to go back to school, we’ll support you. If you want to go to the NBA, we’ll support you. We have tried not to put any pressure on him because it’s his life.”
Collison and his parents plan to discuss things as a family again tonight before his parents go out of town for the weekend. If Collison does decide to declare for the draft, his mom said he likely would not hire an agent.
